What to do when your child is in the rebellious period at the age of three

Many parents have this problem. Their children are particularly difficult to discipline and always go against their parents. They really don’t know how to discipline them. For older children, parents can reason with them and try to communicate with them, but what should they do if they have a three-year-old child? It seems that the child is only three years old, but has suddenly entered a "rebellious period", which gives parents all kinds of headaches. Such a young child cannot be beaten or scolded, and the child is too young to understand when reason is given. What should parents do when their child is in the rebellious period of three years old?

Steps/Methods:

1 Appeal to people’s emotions, explain things to them through reason, and lead by example. When babies are two or three years old, most of them can already understand what adults say. At this time, they enter a rebellious period. What adults should do is not to scold or beat them, but to set an example themselves, tell the children the pros and cons of doing something, and at the same time explain some simple and clear principles to the children. This is more acceptable to children than "rules".

2 Parents should lower their posture and communicate with their children on an equal footing. The baby is a member of the family. If parents want to communicate with their children, they must learn to lower their posture. The equal attitude is reflected in the way of communication, consultation of opinions, etc. Instead of blindly stipulating that children cannot do this or that, too many rules will make children naturally rebellious. The same attitude can help children learn to respect others.

3 Occasionally suffering setbacks can help children learn their lessons. If a child insists on doing something and there is no major harm, he or she can try it under the supervision of his or her parents. After trying, the baby will be able to experience where the problem lies, which can reduce the child's curiosity and rebellious psychology, so that they no longer "question everything" about their parents' words and learn to listen to the opinions of adults.

Note:

Baby's curiosity. Characteristics such as being active clash with the heavy care of parents, which naturally makes children prone to rebellion. However, correct guidance from parents can help children divert their curiosity.
